form_post(3CURSES)	   Curses Library Functions	    form_post(3CURSES)

NAME
       form_post,  post_form,  unpost_form - write or erase forms from associ‐
       ated subwindows

SYNOPSIS
       cc [ flag... ] file... -lform -lcurses [ library... ]
       #include <form.h>

       int post_form(FORM *form);

       int unpost_form(FORM *form);

DESCRIPTION
       post_form() writes form into its associated subwindow. The  application
       programmer must use curses library routines  to display the form on the
       physical screen or call update_panels() if the panels library is	 being
       used.

       unpost_form() erases form from its associated subwindow.

       These routines return one of the following:

       E_OK		       The function returned successfully.

       E_SYSTEM_ERROR	       System error.

       E_BAD_ARGUMENT	       An argument is incorrect.

       E_POSTED		       The form is posted.

       E_NOT_POSTED	       The form is not posted.

       E_NO_ROOM	       The form does not fit in the subwindow.

       E_BAD_STATE	       The  routine was called from an	   initializa‐
			       tion or termination function.

       E_NOT_CONNECTED	       The field is not connected to a form.
